About this pattern

A full moon inside its own halo, above two rows of pine trees with a scatter of stars across the sky. Four colors and around three color changes a row, so it works up quickly for its size. Finishes around 25 by 28 cm (10 by 11 in), small enough to frame or to sew onto a cushion.

Any yarn works as long as every color is the same weight. The names describe the shade, they are not a specific brand.

How to read it

Work flat in single crochet, from the bottom of the chart up. Chain 41 and work row 1 into the chain, starting in the second chain from the hook.

Row 1 is a right side (RS) row, worked from right to left. Turn, and row 2 is a wrong side (WS) row, worked from left to right. Keep alternating to the top.

Each entry is a run of one color: "12 X" means 12 single crochet in the color marked X. Carry the colors you are not using along the top of the row and crochet over them, and switch to the new color on the last yarn over of the stitch before it, so every stitch comes out clean.
